Collective thinking is detestable, the collective imposition on the individual infamous. But the path is a thankless one: there is always a price to pay. Society, with its shameful history of persecuting solitary rebels, denying them the possibility of refusal, always subjecting them to its vile tyranny, cannot be better defined than as the spreading manifestation of evil. It would not surprise to discover that those who rule this world put dead people to wake up inside the coffin.
